3M reports 3Q24 results—raises low-end of 2024 EPS guidance:

https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_f3964958e9215b6f2bea167334f734c9/3m/db/3222/30893/earnings_release/Q3+2024+-+Earnings+Press+Release.pdf

3Q24 non-GAAP EPS—which excludes PFAS litigation expenses and unrealized gain/loss on 3M’s 19.9% equity stake in SOLV—was $1.98. (3Q24 non-GAAP EPS was actually lower than 3Q24 GAAP EPS of $2.48 because the non-GAAP figure excludes a substantial unrealized gain on 3M’s SOLV holding.)

3Q24 sales from continuing operations (which excludes revenue from PFAS products that are being phased out by the end of 2025) was $6.07B (+1.5% YoY).

New 2024 non-GAAP EPS guidance is $7.20-7.30, up at the low end from the prior range of $7.00-7.30.

New 2024 organic-sales-growth guidance is +1%, narrowed from the prior range of 0-2%. (Organic sales growth excludes the effect of acquisitions, divestitures, and exchange rates.)

"3M Jumps Most in 36 Years as New CEO Boosts Profit Forecast"

(Bloomberg) -- 3M Co. soared the most in more than 36 years after raising its full-year profit forecast as its new chief executive officer vowed to reinvigorate the iconic manufacturer’s innovation engine.

The shares jumped as much as 16% as of 9:36 a.m. in New York, the most since 1987. The gains came after the maker of Post-it notes and industrial adhesives said adjusted earnings this year would be between $7.00 to $7.30 per share as it reported second-quarter results. That boosted the midpoint of 3M’s forecast to $7.15, up a dime from its previous outlook.

The results are the first under CEO Bill Brown, who succeeded Mike Roman on May 1. Brown inherited a much smaller company following the spinoff of 3M’s huge health-care products division unit amid massive legal liabilities.

Brown kicked off his first earnings call by stressing the need to accelerate 3M’s sales growth. To get there, he wants to increase the pace of new product development."

3M—(+20%)—reports 2Q24 results—raises 2024 EPS guidance:

https://investors.3m.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/1854/3m-delivers-strong-second-quarter-results-company-updates

Today is shaping up to be the largest single-day % gain for 3M shares since the 1980s!

3M spun off its healthcare segment into the new company, Solventum (Nasdaq: SOLV) on 4/1/24, so 3M’s 2Q24 results and 2024 guidance no longer include that business segment.

New non-GAAP EPS guidance is $7.00-7.30, up $0.50 from the prior range of $6.80-7.30. (Non-GAAP EPS excludes the cost of the announced earplug and PFAS settlements and related legal expenses.)

3M reiterated guidance for 2024 sales growth of -0.25% to +1.75% and for organic sales growth of 0-2.0%. (Organic sales growth excludes the effect of acquisitions, divestitures, and exchange rates.)

3M +4% to 12m high because they cut the dividend by 54%*. Part of the reason for the cut was the spinoff of SOLV, but most of the reason for the cut was to improve the balance sheet and be better able to afford the PFAS and earplug legal liabilities that have been settled.

*The new annualized payout is $2.80, down from $6.04. At the current share price ($104.86), the new annualized payout is a yield of 2.7%.

3M reports 1Q24 results—issues 2024 ex-SOLV-spin guidance:

https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_827c8a8b5aa9802496746200b47d1a06/3m/db/3222/30862/earnings_release/Q1+2024+Press+Release.pdf

3M spun off its healthcare segment into the new company, Solventum (Nasdaq: SOLV) on 4/1/23, so 3M’s 1Q24 results include that business segment. However, 3M’s new guidance for full-year 2024 results excludes the spun-off business and is on an apples-to-apples basis.

1Q24 sales were $8.0B, flat YoY. 1Q24 organic sales (excluding FX, acquisitions, and divestitures) were -1% YoY.

1Q24 non-GAAP EPS—which excludes the cost of the announced earplug and PFAS settlements and related legal expenses—was $2.39, up from $1.97 in 1Q23.

3M’s new ex-SOLV-spin 2024 guidance is as follows:

Non-GAAP EPS of $6.80-7.30. (The prior 2024 guidance including SOLV was $9.35-9.75; actual 2023 non-GAAP EPS was $9.24.)

Sales growth of -0.25% to +1.75%]/b].

Organic sales growth of 0-2.0%.

eastunder 9 months ago

3M Company (MMM) recently completed the previously announced spin-off of its healthcare business into a separate public company. The spun-off entity, which is renamed Solventum Corporation, is listed on the NYSE under the ticker SOLV.

https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2249069/3m-mmm-completes-divestiture-of-its-healthcare-business

MMM’s shares increased 6% yesterday to eventually close the trading session at $94.02.

MMM shareholders received one share of Solventum stock for every four shares of 3M stock held on the record date for the distribution, Mar 18, 2024. The distribution is proposed to be tax-free to MMM’s shareholders. It’s worth noting that 19.9% of outstanding shares of Solventum stock were retained by 3M and will be monetized within five years after completion of the spin-off.

The spin-off of 3M and its healthcare unit will facilitate each entity to flourish through better operational focus, capital allocation policies and financial flexibility. Solventum will serve a global addressable market worth about $93 billion, which is expected to grow in the range of 4-6% through 2026. The new entity will operate through four operating segments, which are Medical Surgical, Dental Solutions, Health Information Systems and Purification & Filtration.

3M announces new CEO effective 5/1/24:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/3m-announces-leadership-appointments-103000708.html 3M today announced that William M. "Bill" Brown is appointed chief executive officer, effective May 1, 2024. He succeeds Michael Roman, who is appointed to the role of Executive Chairman of the 3M Board of Directors, also effective May 1, 2024.

…Brown, 61, is the former Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of L3Harris Technologies, a global innovator in aerospace and defense technology solutions, where he served as chief executive officer and chairman, and then executive chair from June 2019 to June 2022. Brown previously served as chairman, president, and chief executive officer of Harris Corporation prior to its merger with L3 Technologies in 2019. He joined Harris Corporation in November 2011 as president and chief executive officer. Prior to Harris Corporation, Brown spent 14 years at United Technologies Corporation (UTC) serving in a variety of leadership roles.

Roman will continue to chair 3M's Board of Directors and provide insights from his more than 35 years with 3M to the company's strategic direction as executive chairman of the board. He has served as 3M's CEO since July 2018. Roman might not have been a bad CEO, but bad things happened to the company on his watch, so he gets the blame. The stock is +5% in PM trading.

Are market conditions such that 3M views the spinoff as a good way to pay down debt, or obtain funds for further innovation in the medical device sector or pharmaceutical/biotech sector? Funds for M/A with a target in mind? The spinoff will include a large one-time cash transfer from Solventum to the post-spin 3M. 3M will use this cash to pay down debt and/or to help fund the earplug and PFAS legal settlements.

The post-spin 3M will almost certainly refrain from material M&A for a few years; it will instead focus on re-igniting organic growth and paying the legal settlements mentioned above.

On the other hand, Solventum could be a takeover target for a company such as DHR or TMO.

3M will retain a 19.9% stake in Solventum following the spinoff. 3M plans to sell these shares gradually over a 5-year period.

What do you see as the main focus of that 3M healthcare unit? Consumer goods like Kenvue? Will 3M retain a substantial equity position like JNJ did with Kenvue? Are market conditions such that 3M views the spinoff as a good way to pay down debt, or obtain funds for further innovation in the medical device sector or pharmaceutical/biotech sector? Funds for M/A with a target in mind?

As noted, the point was to keep the streak alive.

This year, however, the streak will presumably be broken when 3M spins off its healthcare business, Solventum.
